This is a really vague question, but can anyone recommend some J-pop, in particular, the kind that is used in animés?

Like Melissa from Full Metal Alchemist... or that theme from Onmyou Taisenki...

I know that J-pop is an enormous genre, but do you have any favourites that I could get for my Birthday?

Thanks

Okay, I don't really know what the "J-pop" genre is....how stupid of me, but I do have some favorite anime songs...I'll list them for you..sorry if their the wrong genre, and that you don't enjoy them as much as I do because you have different interests....^_^;;; Hee Hee

Memories from One Piece sung by Maki Ohtsuki or something...

Kesenai Tsumi from Full Metal Alchemist

Tomorrow from Full Metal Panic

Emotion by Tanaka Rie

Sore Ga Ai Deshou and Kimi ni Fuke Kaze from Full Metal Panic Fumoffu

and stuff...so yeah.

LOLz.....^.^

This isn't exactly J-pop, but you might know them. If you have any Manga DVD's, all the Manga film trailers have music by a band called Mad Capsule Markets, and the album is called OSC-DIS. This album is even advertised at the end of the Manga trailer reel. The music is best described as digital-hardcore-thrash-punk-pop from Japan!

I think it's one of the greatest albums EVER made!

If it's proper j-pop you want, you can't go wrong with Puffy Amiyumi! They do the theme tune to Teen Titans (I love that song!) and to the Hi Hi Puffy Amiyumi Show(that cartoon blows!).

As for what I'm listening to, it's Stacy's Mom by Fountains Of Wayne from the Welcome Interstate Managers album.

I know! Mexican Wine is awesome...the song...not the wine...is there even a wine called that?

LOL. When I went on a D.C trip with my class last year, everyone sang Mexican Wine, it was practically like our theme song for that trip...It was awesome! I love Washington D.C.

Okay, right now I'm listening to Unwell, by Matchbox 20....

Hehe, I probably shouldn't say this... but when you bought that single 10 years ago, I was having my first day at school!

Thanks for the animé songs and the Japanese music recommendations

I'm going to investigate them all, and hopefully get as many of them as I can for my birthday (9th August ~ don't forget

)...

Now, One Word, by Kelly Osbourne... I'm trying to translate that French voice that keeps croping up throughout the song... I can't hear it properly though

...

Whoah! That is really weird...

You wouldn't be able to count the number of times I've been called 'Danielle'...

Person: "Hey what's your name?"
Me: "I'm Daniel"
Person: "Haha, that sounds like, Danielle!!"
Me: "I know......."

"Amazing isn't it....."

Anyway, that was completely off-topic...

At the moment, I'm listening to "Noches Guitanas" by "Luis Villegas"; I love this band, it's Latin guitar music

Sorry that I made you feel old SpiritedSen...

This is so weird...my french teacher always used to call me Daniel...even though my name is French, and she was actually French!! Stoopid woman!!

Don't worry, you didn't make me feel any older than I do already!!

I'm listening to Carlotta Valdez by Harvey Danger from Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone? One of my fave albums ever!

Crowded house - Always take the wheater with you
